Liam Payne: Reason for Demise
The National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office No. 14 said that Payne passed away due to “polytrauma, internal and external hemorrhage.”
Despite the fact that it seems Payne was by himself when the fall occurred, the case is being investigated as a “doubtful death.” Two days before, Kate Cassidy, his lover, had left Argentina.
Payne was “going through some kind of outbreak due to substance abuse,” according to the report. Payne’s hotel room had booze and drugs, according to the authorities on the scene.
Last hours: narcotics, a hotel that was “trashed,” and a 911 call
Hotel employees voiced their concerns about Payne’s behavior in a terrifying 911 call made shortly before his death. They said that the musician was destroying his room while under the influence of drugs and alcohol, stating that his life “may be in danger” and requesting that police “come urgently.”
Payne had previously been candid about his battles with addiction, acknowledging that during the height of his One Direction success, he was addicted to “pills and booze.”
Because the band was so large, locking us in our rooms was the only way to keep us safe. What’s within the room? A mini-bar,” he said in a 2021 interview on the The Diary of a CEO podcast. “So at a certain point I thought, I’m just going to have a party-for-one and that seemed to carry on for many years of my life. “Jesus Christ, that’s a long time,” you think as you reflect on how long you’ve been drinking.
Following a stint in treatment, Payne reported feeling “amazing” and 100 days sober in May 2023.

Fans worldwide, as well as his contemporaries in the music industry, have been surprised and devastated by the news of Liam Payne’s untimely death.
As a member of One Direction, one of the most successful boy bands in history, Payne shot to international fame.

A generation of teenage females who grew up idolizing One Direction were devastated by Payne’s untimely death. In his honor, fans have been holding vigils and posting condolences on social media.
Camila Martínez, 24, who was grieving outside the hotel in Argentina, told the New York Times, “He was my favorite.” “When the band broke up, my heart fell apart. When I was feeling down, I would listen to their music because my life was difficult.
Shock and sadness were also voiced by many of Payne’s musical collaborators.
The musician Charlie Puth commented, “I am in shock right now,” recalling Payne as “one of the first major artists I got to work with.” “It’s unbelievable that he’s gone.”
Rita Ora, a British singer-songwriter who worked with Payne on the song “For You,” wrote, “I’m devastated.” “He had the kindest soul, I will never forget. He was such a pleasure to be around, both on and off stage, and I really enjoyed working with him. This awful news shakes my heart. Sending all my love and prayers to his family and loved ones.”
